About This Design

Sports car gear knob, transmission shift pattern mug

Sports car gear knob, transmission shift pattern mug

This is the classic 901 racing gearbox shift pattern, also called “dog leg”. Many air-cooled 911 racing cars used this shifter layout because it kept first gear away from the rest. 5th gear (or the top gear) was in line with 4th, which made it very practical on the race track, especially the Nurburgring Nordschleife and Le Mans. Racing drivers loved it because it meant the four most used gears were at hand, while first was safely stowed away with reverse. Modern stick gearboxes don’t look like this any more. The transmission in a modern sports car is different in the sense that it has more gears and the pattern is not of the dog leg type. Also, tiptronic, sequential or double-clutch systems have taken over and you even see it in race cars. This vintage gear knob is for classic air-cooled lovers, especially those who drove or raced the famous flat-six 911 auto, or simply anyone with fond memories of the old dog-leg tranny. If you have a classic car or knows someone who likes driving or racing a vintage race car, consider this unique automotive gift.

So personal and very much a product of today's market. I personally purchased the Mug for myself to stop others from taking it LOL 😆 However this would make the perfect personalised gift for anyone - I am thinking Work Christmas gift etc I like my coffee so I only wish the mug was slightly bigger. The Avatar I choose came out PERFECTLY it really does look spot on.

Great product, good delivery time, and an awesome idea for a gift! It was even better than I could have imagined, the customisation is incredible. The colour is perfect, it's dishwashable and microwaveable, the text print on the mug looks exactly like I wanted it to look and best of all, it's a large sized mug that you can drink plenty of coffee or whatever you want! I gifted this to my father and he loves it. He drinks coffee with that mug everyday :) I recommend.
